Hear from electrification coaches who have already electrified and learn from amazing fellow attendees.
During this session, ECA’s electrification volunteers will suggest where to look for recently updated information so that you can begin or extend your own electrification journey, including how to look for an electrification coach, how to seek out a contractor, and where to obtain helpful information about rebates and financing. We will point you in the direction of those U.S. states already offering rebates, including, where available, local information would be found. Join us for a deeperexploration into how to begin to electrify your home.
